| The island of Cozumel lies
just twelve miles off the Yucatan Coast, a 45 minute
ferry ride from the famed Riviera Maya. Dive into the
crystal blue waters of Cozumel and discover why Jacques
Cousteau called it the "best diving area in the
world." Palancar Reef, the second largest in the
world, provides an incredible diversity of species,
stunning sites and visibility of at least 150 feet.
Whether you're a first time snorkeler or an experienced
diver, the intricate coral reefs and teems of painted
fish will amaze you! There are direct flights, which
maybe seasonal or on specific days, otherwise inner
island flights or ferry is available from main land. |
